    I like the last one but i am tempted to say: a bit brighter would look nicer. tried it in ps and liked the effect so maybe you'll like it too.. rolleyes1.gif

    i think the BG suits the first two shots well but it doesnt grab my attention. nice tries though and keep posting them! thumb.gif

    hehe it's k i think it would be my fault for not getting closer and making the eye move ; problem is it is white sooo makes it harder to stop unles i moved in close or maybe cropped it.. thx

    Like the last one too- didn't notice the little critter- think it's a moth fly BTW - only around 4-5mm long. Think I'd concentrate on the flower lighting in the shot though.

    I like the last shot and the way the light falls on the pink blossoms.
    I didn't see the little bug on the petal either till I read the threads above mine rolleyes1.gif your eye just skims over the top of that little guy doesn't it.

    The colour shot shows up the little bug much better, as it tends to blend in with the rest of the image in the B&W Version.

    Doing good there Bashphoto thumb.gif .... Skippy :D

    Brian,
    I think your right, main reason i darkened the shot was to get the lighting to point to the moth but didn't work, i think the other area's are too dark and somehow the eye moves to that part too.. umm gotta see what i can do . thanks .

    thanks Skippy,

    ya your eyes kinda just go over it i guess it's also white so kinda blends in with thel ight.

    im quite surprised everyone liked the last shot and not the first or even the third shot maybe if i post the first shot in color would that help.. any reason the first and 3rd shot don't work ?

    thx Skippy :P
